8. POTENTIAL SAVINGS A public 4-year institution would charge, on average, $4,706 a semester for in-state students (5 courses, or 15 credit hours, including the cost of books and fees). That averages out to $941.20 per course. With the Saylor Student/Credit pathway model, the total cost of a course would range from $20-$95. Based on projected cost estimates and in progress course alignments, 15 credit hours of common first year courses would cost a Saylor student only $295. HARNESSING TECHNOLOGY TO MAKE EDUCATION FREE
